Avalos decline a title shot

what did they offer him?

 

i dont like it, but i wont give him **** over it. a fighter has to know that even winning he is going to look bad against rigo, rigo has been known to stink up a joint while winning and 80k dont sound like a lot for a world title and a chance to look bad.

 

Rigo vs Jessie Magdaleno then?

^edit: Never mind, Magdaleno is fighting in Octoberatsch

 

The WBO should give Shingo Wake a shot as an apology for wrongly stripping him of his ranking!

 

This tells me all I need to know about how well negotiations went for a Frampton v Quigg fight

 

well, they better start by dropping a few more fighters with higher profiles for thinking they deserve more money to fight a dangerous opponent who cant draw fleas to a dog.

 

Rigo is the king of the division. Let's see if Leo Santa Cruz actually wants it.

 

I suspect Hearns dealing here. Pushing avalos towards taking his mandatory with Frampton, in order to pressurise Frampton into accepting Hearns terms for Quigg.

It's a case of.." Fight Quigg under my terms or as avalos promoter I'll force you to fight a much less meaningful fight with Chris.." :twisted: :-(

 

looks like a duck...sounds like a duck...

 

But Avalos is mandatory for Frampton, so could you blame him if he wants an easier (but still difficult) shot at the world title against Frampton than fighting Rigo?

 

McGuigan could call that bluff and have Frampton fight Avalos in Belfast.
It's not as big of a fight over there as Frampton v Quigg but people will still buy tickets

 

Avalos would have no chance with his style. He has the right to protect himself.
